Horn Book Review

These calls to action achieve an artful balance: general information about the subjects is peppered with provocative sidebars (Gorilla Humor, Is the Giant Panda a Bear?); gruesome images reinforcing a point about an animal's mistreatment are often tempered with a relevant cartoon. Unfortunately, the black-and-white photos are sometimes blurry and dark. Bib., glos., ind. (c) Copyright 2010. The Horn Book, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Media Source, Inc.
